Synopses & Reviews
Janet Evanovich's first Stephanie Plum outing, the Dilys award-winning One for the Money, was a finalist for the Edgar, Anthony, Agatha, Shamus, and Macavity awards, and was named the book most fun to sell by the Independent Mystery Booksellers of America in 1994. Now she once again takes to the mean streets of Trenton, armed with attitude (not to mention stun guns, defense sprays, killer flashlights, and her untrustworthy .38) to find Kenny Mancuso, who recently left the army, inadvertently shot his best friend, and is on the run in violation of a bond.
Aided by her tough bounty hunter coach and her irrepressible Grandma Mazur, Stephanie once again forms a rocky alliance with fast-talking, slow-handed vice cop Joe Morelli for the tumultous chase through back alleys and Grandma's favorite funeral parlors.
Witty, fresh, and full of surprises, Two for the Dough is the Stephanie Plum sequel fans have been waiting for.

Synopsis
Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is packing a whole lot of attitude -- not to mention stun guns, defense sprays, and a .38 Smith & Wesson. She's on the trail of Kenny Mancuso, from working-class Trenton, New Jersey, who has just shot his best friend. Fresh out of the army and suspiciously wealthy, Mancuso's also distantly related to Joe Morelli, a vice cop with questionable ethics, a libido in permanent overdrive, and a habit of horning in on Stephanie's investigations. Aided by her tough bounty-hunting pal, Ranger, and her funeral-hopping Grandma Mazur, Stephanie's soon staggering knee-deep in corpses, trying to shake Morelli...and stirring up a very nasty enemy.
